Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Hints
How does this puzzle work?
1 of 8: Try clicking on some of the red symbols shown to the left of the panel.
2 of 8: When you click on a symbol, it'll be put on the panel in a specific location, so at least you don't need to know where each symbol goes -- just which ones to use.
3 of 8: NOTE: To remove a symbol from the panel, click on it on the panel. To reset the whole puzzle, right-click and then use the panel on the blood again.
4 of 8: Check your portfolio to see if you have any reports or documents that might shed some light on this situation.
5 of 8: There really isn't much of anything, so think -- what might the sign of the "great old ones" be?
6 of 8: Try going back down the stairs to the small halfway-point platform and then looking down at the floor below.
7 of 8: You see that star-like design with an eye in the center? That's the Sign of the Great Old Ones.
8 of 8: So click on the red symbols that will create that picture on the panel.
